Men get 10 years for videotaped rape

Two men were sentenced to 10 years in prison Monday for raping a 14-year-old girl while filming parts of the nearly seven-hour attack.

Christopher D. Hardy and Dashuan Lee Wiltshire, both 19, were convicted in November of rape, conspiracy and unlawful videotaping of a minor.

Darren Lamont Rice, 20, was scheduled to be sentenced for the same crime Monday but did not appear in court. The status of his case was not immediately clear.

The girl, who didn't report the rape for two weeks after the February 2006 attack, missed a school bus and called one of the suspects for a ride. Hardy and Rice picked her up and took her to an apartment, where Rice raped her, prosecutors said.

The girl left, but the three suspects picked her up again and took her back to the apartment, where all three raped her while filming some of the attack, prosecutors said.

Police found the video, which shows the men raping and threatening the girl while she repeatedly says, "No."

"They tormented and humiliated her," prosecutor Lori DiGiosia said.

Defense attorneys said their clients were not as bad as what was portrayed on the videotape.
